 The Pearl Police Department issued the following statement.

On March 30, 2026, at approximately 2:30 PM, the Pearl Police Department 911 Operations Center received a call for service at the Super 8 Motel, 111 Airport Road, in reference to an "ex" attempting to steal the caller's vehicle.  Officers with the patrol and special operations divisions responded to the scene and began an investigation.  During the court of this investigation, it was determined that the female party sustained injuries consistent to domestic violence.  Officers learned what room the male party was staying in and attempted to make contact with him, however, the male refused to answer the door.  Officers on scene were able to establish phone contact with the male party who expressed that he was not coming out.  The domestic violence nature of the call for service than turned into a barricaded subject and was turned over to the Pearl Police Department Special Weapons and Tactics Team.  

An officer certified in hostage negotiations began dailogue with the male party for approximately thirty minutes resulting in the male exiting the motel room and surrendering without incident.  

A special thanks to all the police officers involved in bringing a peaceful resolution to one of the most dangerous situations we face as law enforcement officers .
